In fact, Ling Xuewei deliberately let the black blade cut Hua Manshang's finger, and the moment she reached out to touch him, she sent the drop of blood into the space.
"Too dangerous!"
Whenever Qingwu thinks of Ling Xuewei's risky move, his heart beats a little faster.
If discovered, the consequences would be truly disastrous.
"I'm very careful, it's okay." Ling Xuewei smiled nonchalantly.
She didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
Even if I could see the Flower City Lord next time, it would be extremely difficult to get blood from him.
Ling Xuewei is currently studying blood.
The blood of those who died contained many bloody punishment components. But the strange thing is that people who have not taken this medicine will die one after another.
The only thing she can find in common now is that these corpses all have blue spots more or less on them.
Unlike corpse spots, they are scattered and unevenly distributed.
The more bloody components in the blood, the more blue spots there will be.
Ling Xuewei had a vague suspicion that perhaps the real key was not in this medicinal solution?
…
The next day, the president of the Royal Tournament personally announced the top seven players.
And awarded awards to seven people.
Each of the seven people received 100,000 gold coins, an Imperial Fighter title medal, and a Resurrection Pill.
As the name suggests, this elixir can save people's lives when life and death are at stake. As long as you still have breath, you can be saved by taking this elixir. It is a rare treasure.
Of course, for Ling Xuewei, it is dispensable. After all, she can also refine the Resurrection Pill. And she has a lot of life-saving things on her body. Just the god-level Tree of Life and Pure Lotus Glass Fire are not comparable to the Resurrection Pill.
of.
But for the barbarian warriors who were short of resources, this elixir was already something that could only be found but not sought.
Among the seven, Ling Xuewei and Qing Wu account for two. The other five are also on the list and are almost all seeded players.
After the awards were handed out, it was the banquet.
The banquet was held in the city lord's palace, and I heard that the city lords of the four cities would all come. This is the latest news.
The previous Imperial Tournaments were not so grand, and it was already rare to invite a city lord. Unexpectedly, this time, the city lords of the four cities would all come to visit, which surprised everyone.
Soon, they were invited into the city lord's mansion.
Fatty Jin naturally goes along as the "leader".
Two of the top seven were brought by him, and now he felt proud.
Along the way, many people came to chat and flatter him. Fatty Jin smiled from ear to ear. This time he was in the spotlight.
"Let me tell you, it would be best if you could join the Guard." Fatty Jin introduced, "The Guard is the central army, directly under the jurisdiction of the city lord's palace, and has great power, especially the 'Shence Army'
The most famous.”
"Shence Army?"
"Yes, this is the first army under Huacheng Lord, and they are the most loyal confidants. If you can join the troops directly under Huacheng Lord, it will be your honor!"
The more Fatty Jin talked, the more excited he became.
Shence Army...
Ling Xuewei was thoughtful.
Soon, we arrived at the city lord's mansion.
At the main entrance, people were coming and going, and there was a lot of traffic.
They were welcomed in, and along the way, they saw the magnificent City Lord's Mansion, with green tiles and blue bricks, which was classical yet majestic. Looking at the building, it was at least a hundred years old, but there was no trace of the erosion of time.
Soon, they were taken to the resettlement area, which was a place specially designed for VIPs to rest.
The servants let them rest for a while, and the banquet started in the evening.
Soon, the servant leading the way left.
Ling Xuewei and Qingwu looked at each other and entered the room.
Fortunately, there are only two of them in this courtyard, and the other five players are closest to them dozens of meters away.
Ling Xuewei changed her clothes. It was a tight-fitting jacket, which was most suitable for investigating intelligence.
"Sir, why don't I go." Qingwu was still worried.
They plan to explore the city lord's mansion.
"Your abilities are not suitable for detection. Have you forgotten that my wind element can make you invisible?"
While she was talking, Ling Xuewei had already prepared the equipment and put on a communicator on her ear. The so-called communicator is just like an earring, which may not look surprising at first glance, but it is actually a device that integrates communication and monitoring.
, Ling Xuewei can contact Qingwu at will, and Qingwu can also know the situation on her side through the camera in the earring.
Soon, Ling Xuewei left through the back window.
He jumped up to the roof nimbly and activated the wind element. His body quickly disappeared and turned into wisps of breeze and floated out.
Qingwu could see the buildings in the city lord's palace through the monitoring screen in the room.
The City Lord's Mansion is very large and very lively because of today's banquet.
From the air, she could have a clear view of the City Lord's Mansion. Soon, she discovered a building in the middle.
That building is taller and more majestic. If you want to come here, it is the Zhuohua-in Temple, which is full of flowers.
According to the topographic map of the City Lord's Mansion given by Qingwu, next to Zhuohua Courtyard is the main hall where banquets are held - Yanbin Pavilion.
She saw many servants setting up the banquet pavilion, and there were also many guards.
After a while, she arrived at Zhuohua Courtyard.
It's very quiet here.
Except for a few sporadic guards, Ling Xuewei found no one else.
This made her feel very strange. How could the guards in the main courtyard of the dignified city be so weak?
Ling Xuewei came to the courtyard, passed through layers of rockeries, stone forests, small bridges and flowing water, and soon was attracted by a field of fiery red flowers.
This is...Phoenix flower?
I saw bouquets of flowers as full as lotus pods surrounded by each other, red and dazzling, like groups of flames, vying to bloom.
Can Phoenix flowers be grown here?
The soil in the wilderness is dry, and the phoenix flower is delicate and has extremely high requirements for the soil. Soon she discovered that there seemed to be a special spiritual formation around it... No wonder the phoenix flower could survive here.
Judging from the way it blooms, it must have been cared for carefully.
A lazy face flashed across Ling Xuewei's mind for no apparent reason.
At this time, she suddenly felt someone coming from around her. She hid in the dark, and in a moment, she saw countless people in black appearing in the courtyard.
"Go find a topographical map."
"Remember, we must find the blueprint before Hua Manshang comes back."
"Disperse!"
…
As soon as he finished speaking, these men in black suddenly dispersed!
Topographic map?
Ling Xuewei's eyes flashed slightly. Who are these people? Listening to their words, they must be looking for something.
Without hesitation, Ling Xuewei followed directly.
These people searched the entire Zhuohua Academy. Ling Xuewei followed the leader of the men in black and saw him coming to the study. He knocked here and there in the room and searched. After a while, he found a secret room.
The man in black ducked in. Ling Xuewei was just about to follow when suddenly a warning sign appeared behind her!
She retreated subconsciously, and almost at the same time, a red light landed where she was just now!
"What...ah!"
Suddenly a scream came from the secret room!
Then I saw countless red mist suddenly appearing from all directions, covering the entire study in the blink of an eye...
